31,551 deaths from All Causes were among individuals of all ages
2022 vs New Normal™ for individuals of all ages in Kansas
- 31,551 of 31,551 total deaths were from All Causes
- 100.00% of all deaths were from All Causes
- This is up 19% compared to Old Normal rates.
- 26,405 of 26,405 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
- 5,146 excess deaths from All Causes in 2022.
- 22,115 excess deaths from All Causes (2015-2022)
- To show this year’s deaths from All Causes are up 19% compared to Old Normal rates, we need to calculate the rates for both 2022 and for the Old Normal.
Remember, death rates are calculated to answer these questions:
- “How many individuals of all ages were there?” and
- “How many of them died from All Causes?”
The following 2 charts provide this information:
Deaths – All Causes – Both Sexes – Of All Ages | Kansas, United-states
Population – Both Sexes – Of All Ages – [2000-2022] | Kansas, United-states
From the charts, we can see that in 2022, 31,551 of 2,876,153 individuals of all ages living in Kansas died from All Causes.
31,551 ÷ 2,876,153 = 0.01097 (2022 CDR)
The table shows there were a total of 371,437 deaths from All Causes among 40,458,967 individuals of all ages living in Kansas in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.
371,437 ÷ 40,458,967 = 0.00918 (Old Normal CDR)
We can use the Old Normal rate to predict this year’s deaths:
2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths
2,876,153 X 0.00918 = 26,405 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths shows lives saved or lost:
31,551 – 26,405 = 5,146
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths gives us the comparative rates:
31,551 ÷ 26,405 = 1.1936
This reveals 5,146 lives lost and is 119.36% of what we expected (an increase of 19%) in deaths from All Causes among individuals of all ages living in Kansas in 2022, as compared to the Old Normal.
This is the same method used by Public Health to calculate the 5-yr CDR (Cumulative Death Rate):
199,267 ÷ 19,856,914 = 0.01004 (5-yr CDR)
2,876,153(2022 pop) X 0.01004 = 28,863 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
31,551 – 28,863 = 2,688 or 2,688 lives lost
Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:
31,551 ÷ 28,863 = 1.0921 or an increase of 9%
for deaths from All Causes among individuals of all ages living in Kansas in 2022, as compared to the previous 5 years.
Compare our Old Normal to the 5yr CDR. Does it tell the same story your TV does?
Finally, the same method can also be used to compare our Old Normal rate to the New Normal™ rate:
New Normal™ population X Old Normal rate = expected deaths
22,733,067 X 0.00918 = 208,703 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
230818 – 208,703 = 22,115 or 22,115 lives lost
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:
230,818 ÷ 208,703 = 1.1048 or an increase of 10%
in deaths from All Causes among individuals of all ages living in Kansas in the New Normal™, as compared to the Old Normal.
The world has been led to believe that a deadly pandemic swept the globe beginning in 2020, causing an increase in death rates, especially among the elderly
The data show that death rates began to increase in 2015, immediately upon implementation of the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, that young adults have experienced ever-increasing death rates since, and that death rates among the elderly have remained relatively stable.
